My girlfriend has been doing a lot of food prep at her work lately, (she usually carries a blue delica and ladybug hawkbill), today she came home and asked if I had a bigger knife she could use! :)

I showed her my spare parts military and she said "hmm yeah that could probably cut through a tomato", lmao!

So gave it a tune up and sharpen, now its in her handbag ready for tomorrow! :D

Can't help but wonder the history of the parts... is the right scale from the Cruwear?
... the back one must be from a RIL model?

On second glance, the scale is obviously not G-10. I remember now when you did the switcharoo and would up with ... a Ti cruwear combination?

I'm a bit ashamed to admit it but it has become a bit of a queen, ironic that I put together my dream user knife, and now too scared to use it :o
Thats why I brought my zwear SMF, its a 'similar' spec'd knife but I can fully beat on it with no real consequence.

I can fully understand that. It's a beauty of a knife and a nice clear shot of it as well. I love Cuscadi's Dr Jones treatment with antiqued OD micarta, which would be my dream user in a millie, but it would be tough to give it hard use.

...Quite enjoyable and satifsying to have the number of knives decrease but the sharpness of the edges increase. The eternal quest for least resistance;)

Enjoy your edges folks:)
